transcode install [solved]

I fought for a while trying to install the PLF repositorys, since easyurpmi wasnt working for me i had found a command to install them (i didnt have the --mirrorlist switch for some reason) see image for output

I assume from that pic that you're using 2008.1. If that is true, then you need to update your software sources. The package you need is libgraphviz4 and it's in the /media/main/release repo.

Didnt quite work as expected, i updated my distro and update sources. rpmdrake and urpmi still didnt give me the option to install libgraphvis4 i have libgraphvis3 installed. whats next

As greg has pointed out, you are still using the 2008.1 repos. If you are using Mandriva 2009 you need to use the 2009 repos.

[Greg2]

What version of Mandriva are you using? Please open a terminal and post the output of

cat /etc/release

It appears that you have mixed versions of repos?

im using 2008.0 everything is current. is the solution to add the 2008.1 repos to get the updates. if so i tried and my list of dependency errors grows larger. whatd be the command to remove the packages with dependency problems to possibly correct them with a reinstall from rpmdrake. or correct me as to how that works

[Axisinc636]

cat /etc/release
Mandriva Linux release 2008.0 (Official) for i586

mustve run into some bad mirrors, i now have the 08.1 upgrade running through rpmdrake at 1382 packages ill let that be overnight and check it tomarow after work.

After thinking I crashed my box after the update.....I copied something after to my roots desktop that filled the / partition.

All is well... for now anyway. I really need to create a partion for backups. This may be my first post and first almost completely configured server box but ive been using mandrake for years, throughout the improvements it made each step definatly helped me understand it and the reason why it is what it is, theres still a lot for me to learn, and im sure il be back here soon. I want to eliminate winblowz on my boxes....

 

My solution was to reconfigure 2008.0 sources.

update (although it didnt have anything to update)

remove them sources, and add 2008.1 sources. Update them 1300+ packages.

this enabled -mirrorlist switch. Which then allowed me to use easy urpmi for plf repositorys.

install transcode (now to figure out how to use it lol)
